The biggest name on the trade board had been rumoured to be heading to Carolina over the last few days but the trade of Jake Guentzel from Pittsburgh to Carolina happened overnight Thursday/Friday. Guentzel is currently injured but was skating in Pittsburgh’s practice on Thursday in a contact jersey, so it may not be long [...]
The first of the San Jose Trade Deadline trades happened late Thursday night as winger Anthony Duclair was sent to the Tampa Bay Lightning, along with a seventh-round pick in 2025, in exchange for prospect defenseman Jack Thompson and a third-round pick in 2024. Thompson is a third-round pick from 2020 himself with 32 points [...]
In Vladimir Tarasenko’s debut with Florida, he started on the top line with Aleksander Barkov and Sam Reinhart, skating on the left side. That moved Carter Verhaeghe down to the second line and Nick Cousins to the fourth. We will see how long this lasts but it’s a very good position to be to start [...]
Nashville made some moves swapping around their depth as they traded forward Yakov Trenin and prospect Graham Sward to Colorado in exchange for prospect Jeremy Hanzel and a third-round pick in the 2025 Draft. That trade was made just an hour or so after the team acquired forward Anthony Beauvillier from Chicago for a fifth-round [...]
Wednesday almost felt like Trade Deadline day as a number of the big names were moved to the new locales for a playoff (or Lottery) push.

Another of the big Trade Deadline pieces is on the move as Darren Dreger reported that Vegas acquired winger Anthony Mantha from the Washington Capitals. Going the other way is a 2024 second-round pick and a 2026 fourth-round pick. Mantha was in the midst of his best offensive season since leaving Detroit with 20 goals [...]

There was some concern that Detroit defenceman Moritz Seider might miss time after blocking a shot on Tuesday night, but Ted Kulfan reports that Seider is just fine after getting X-rays completed that came back negative. Seider has been having another good multi-cat fantasy season with seven goals, 32 points, and 277 hits+blocks through 59 [...]
There are just 10 days until the Trade Deadline and the Washington Capitals have a number of players that will garner interest, including both Anthony Mantha and Nic Dowd. Both have been injured recently, though, and that’s always a concern at this time of year. There was good news at practice with Mantha back on [...]
Colorado got a key piece to their lineup back, though it’s not Gabriel Landeskog or Valeri Nichushkin (yet). Logan O’Connor returned to the lineup for Colorado on Thursday night, having missed four games. O’Connor went into that game third on the team in 5-on-5 goals with nine, and he has the lowest on-ice goals against [...]
